SugarCoat is a new Tanghulu vendor which has set up shop inside the Robson Public Market at 1610 Robson Street.
Tanghulu, also known as bingtanghulu (冰糖葫芦), is a traditional Chinese snack that consists of fruit skewered on a bamboo stick and coated in a hardened sugar syrup. This treat is popular, especially in northern China, and is often sold by street vendors.
SugarCoat’s Tanghulu lineup includes Strawberry, Green Grape, Grape, Cherry & Tomato, Pineapple, Mandarin Orange and assorted. Prices are between $3 – $4.50 for each skewer.
I simply walked by and noticed the signage but I have yet to try their products myself. However, there are some reviews that are posted in their Google business profile.
SugarCoat Tanghulu shop is located at 1610 Robson Street, Vancouver inside Robson Public Market.
